Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 757

Christie let out a sharp laugh, like she’d just heard the most ridiculous thing ever. “You beat my son up and now you want him to apologize? Are you out of your minds?”

Christie snapped her fingers at the two bodyguards by her side, pointing at Lydia. When she glanced at Connor, she hesitated, then skipped right over him and jabbed her finger at Luke. “And him. Hold them down. I’m going to teach them a lesson they won’t forget.”

The two bodyguards stepped forward, looking confident. Lydia and Luke didn’t seem like much trouble to them.

But before Lydia could even move, Connor took a step forward and, with two quick kicks, sent both bodyguards flying. They hit the ground hard, completely stunned.

Christie, Fred, and the others just stared, mouths open. The whole thing happened so fast, they barely even saw it.

Christie’s face turned red. “How dare you... You hurt my son, then my driver, and you think you’ll get away with it? I’m calling the police!”

Lydia just nodded, totally calm. “Go ahead.”

That only made Christie angrier. She shot a furious glare at Lydia, then whipped out her phone and made the call. When she hung up, she immediately called her husband, her voice shaking with anger as she told him their son had been attacked and that he needed to come right away.

She put her phone away and glared at Lydia, practically vibrating with outrage. “You’re done. Just wait.”

Fred puffed up his chest. “Yeah, my stepdad is really powerful. You guys are in so much trouble.”

Lydia just gave Christie a look, holding her gaze for a moment. She didn’t say anything more.

A few minutes later, two police officers showed up. They took one look at Fred’s swollen face and immediately focused on Lydia and Connor. Both of them were wearing black hats and masks, so the officers asked them to take them off.
